⭐ Forum Leader Awards 2024

The Forum Leader Awards shine a spotlight on the extraordinary members of our Forum Leader Program. Each award honors a leader’s unique contribution—whether it’s answering tough questions, sharing expert tips, supporting global communities, or working behind the scenes to keep everything running smoothly. These awards celebrate the heart and soul of the forum: our incredible Forum Leaders.

As the year winds down, we take a moment to celebrate the incredible contributions of our Forum Leader Program members. They have supported, engaged, and inspired our community throughout the year :raising_hands::sparkles:
